Lack of power and a vehicle running rough can be caused by one of two very common problems. One is a leak in the air duct between the air filter and the throttle body. This will generally make the car also hard to start. The other is a leak from rubber hoses connecting the intake to the PCV valve at the crankcase causing a vacuum leak. This will normally cause the vehicle to rev when in park and when first put in gear. More serious problems such as a misfire from a bad coil pack or a blown head gasket can also cause the vehicle to lose power and run poorly but these are not as common.

I am having serious problems with the idle modual it reves at the norm then all of a sudden the reves just increase up to roughly 2.300 and then come down to near stalling

First Check All Air hoses. Make sure no vacuum leak are present.
make sure your ignition coil are good. This will make engine idle roughly. For the rpm to high or to low maybe your air idler is no good. If you're car turn off it might be overheated. Check coolant level. Make your not mixing water with oil. Check the oil dipstick to verify. If like a milky color then it's mixing water with oil. This will car to stall and run roughly

When driving cluch goes in when driving the reves

Sounds like you need a new clutch. At a stand still put the car in third and try to get it to move. If you don't stall out you need a new clutch.

Revers reves hi rpm.

Your reverse gear is the strongest single gear in your transmission it is not a high speed gear ut it s a high torque gear a if your car was heavily loaded or towing a trailer you wold require the higher torque for backing up
